The above statements do not apply to load cells outside the standard product range.
Descriptions of load cell variants that are not included in the standard product range can be
found on the appropriate data sheet.
9.4 Electromagnetic compatibility
To maintain the electromagnetic compatibility:
• Ensure that the cables are routed with electromagnetic compatibility, even within cabinets
• Lay the signal cable segregated from cables with voltages > 60 V or high currents
• Avoid sites neighboring large electrical systems
• Use a shielded cable
• Ensure proper grounding
9.5 Certicates and approvals for explosion protection
In hazardous areas, it is only permitted to use load cells and components with the appropriate
ATEX approval.
When connecting up the load cells in hazardous areas, the appropriate EC-type examination
certicates and any supplements must be observed.
